This Middle Class Amnesia Won’t Last Much Longer

[midnight]

4. Here is how they are dismantling what is left of the middle class jobs in Wisconsin:

Special Session Assembly Bill 11 was announced to the public on February 11th and would be officially introduced on February 15th. The bill was eventually signed into law by Governor Walker on March 11th as Act 10.

“It’s working, pure and simple,” said Healy. “In October, we announced that the savings to state and local governments has topped $2 billion and the total continues to grow. Act 10 gave government at all levels the tools they need to rein in costs while continuing to provide the same level of service. While states like Illinois are increasing taxes, laying off teachers and cutting services, Wisconsin continues to be an example of how to budget responsibly.

AFPF and MacIver joined forces in 2011 to create the “It’s Working” project. The effort educated the public on the benefits of Act 10 through a series of town halls, social media and paid advertising.
